The above parties shall employ techniques such as baiting, trapping, physical <br />identification, and visual inspection to formally identify pests. This include installing pest <br />monitors, interior and exterior rodent stations, and pheromone traps. Companies and the <br />IPM technicians shall record all sightings of potential pest and conduct a formal <br />investigation to verify the threat. <br />IPM PRACTICES AND STRATEGIES <br />The IPM program utilizes a four-tiered approach to pest control by setting action <br />thresholds, monitoring and identifying pests, prevention, and finally control. The IPM <br />promotes the use of a range of preventative and non-chemical approaches to control <br />pest populations and stave off infestation. If an infestation with unacceptable impacts <br />occurs, thereby warranting additional treatment, IPM favors the use of least-toxic <br />pesticides. The targeted application of a toxic pesticide is allowed only after all other <br />reasonable non-toxic options are exhausted. <br />3 <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: 16D1C412-7260-4260-8A87-C870C0BEE374
